This is a beginner version in the key of G, Just a simple strum of Up/Down/Down
sounds good. The D chord over "Love" in the last line of the chorus is optional and
is to be for one beat only. The C G chords that are found together in the chorus after every second
line are to be played with one down strum each. Or you can pick the open D string, hammer
the D string 2nd fret then pick open G string, shown below in the second Tab. At the of the third
verse play the D chord in down strums to bring you into the chorus.
